READ THE FOLLOWING PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTION THAT FOLLOW

Those who understand the murky workings of a troubled mind will testify, on their professional oath, that a would-be arsonist or serial killer conducts himself just like any other local or neighbor, could be a loving spouse and parent, regular guy among his colleagues, a conscientious church-goers or alms-giver, predictable as clockwork in appointment, even sparkling with compliments and jokes.

Such an individual, catapulted to positions of responsibility, may actually prove second to none in the initiation and execution of laudable social schemes and projects. A madman, such experience psychiatrists will assure you, develops cunning of great subtlety that succeeds in disguising the dark, trouble interior, the seat of festering dementia until, of course, it is too late.

When for instance, an individual substitutes himself for the totality, this is evidence of delusion, backed by the most precise of sciences, mathematics one can not substitutes to more than one. Fortunately, we can precisely identify and isolate the entity of one, and just as easily identify the rest. When that errant substitutes his will for the constitution, we are already with in the zone of questionable balance of mind and, as it happens the constitution has anticipated and offers the course of action that a people might purse when confronted with such a highly advance stage of solipsism.

21. According to the passage, a nation face dire consequences (a) When its leader is burdened by the enormity of power          (b) If its leader substitutes himself for the constitution    (c) If its demented leaders persist in office   (d) when its leader attains advanced stages of solipsism
22. The tone of the writer can best be describe as (a) analytical (b) sarcastic           (c) intolerant   (d) nostalgic
